| The Amazing Pat Gallenant Charette ultra open water champion swimmer and Founder of Swim For Your Heart |
The idea of Swim Your Heart was the brain child of Pat
Gallant Charette from Maine in the United States, 60-year-old Pat (sorry for
dropping your age in Pat...you look much younger) is full-time nurse who cares
for her three young grandchildren and is inspiring friends around the world
with her attitude and marathon swimming achievements.
Pat kicked off 2011 by founding the non-profit Swim for
Your Heart February 14 organisations that support heart disease-related charity
groups through a worldwide swim. The swim for your heart day in now support by
28 countries
Despite all the demands on her time, Pat manages her time
well enough to train and travel the world to honour the memories of her two
late brothers. With hundreds of miles of training under her cap, Pat
started her summer season by becoming the oldest American woman to complete the
English Channel in 15 hours and 57 minutes. Not content, she headed west
and became the oldest woman to complete the Catalina Channel in 14 hours and 11
minutes. And is now in training to swim the Cook Strait in New Zealand in
2012..!! the lady is simply amazing...Ricks are proud to have Pat as friend and
we are also proud that we are able help her in a small way to
spread the word about Heart Disease through swimming in the UK
